As Heero and Duo made their way to the hanger where all the gundams were
kept they heard a strange noise. The boys exchanged glances before taking
off at a sprint towards the hanger.
When they got there everything looked normal. Heero took out his gun motioned for Duo to check left and he would go right. With his gun aimed about head height he began to make his way around occasionally glancing around to check on Duo.
It was silent and he couldn't see any forced access. He met up with Duo round the other side when suddenly Ralph started moving. It was only a small movement as it probably had been before but it was moving which meant Taryn must have been moving it.
But Taryn wasn't anywhere near them. Suddenly a scream issued from Ralph and it sprang into the air making a gaping hole in the roof. Duo and Heero took off to their gundams and followed Ralph.
Ralph's flying was very erratic and he would suddenly lose altitude and threaten to smash into things though luckily he never did.

Taryn awoke lying on a metal table. Her limbs were strapped down and her eyelids were heavy. She was staring directly up into a bright light, which was suddenly turned off. Blue spots danced in front of her eyes and her arms strained against the straps to rub them.
Her mind was in bits. Her memory was appearing in bursts causing her a lot of disorientation. As a memory of Heero flashed up she felt a needle sink into her arm and felt light headed as all her memories of Heero in chronological order started flashing through her mind.
No she had to stop before he saw the ones of Heero in Ralph and shouting at Duo. All of the ones he had seen so far were ones he had seen before but if she didn't stop him now she never would.
She squeezed her eyes shut and used all the training she had been given to control Ralph through her mind to get any thoughts of Heero out of there. Suddenly she felt it. Ralph. He was coming. He was close.
Once again she closed her eyes and let her whole body relax and let her mind flow to him.
Ralph's flying suddenly drastically improved and he flew straight to a surf shack perched at the top of a beach. Heero and Duo jumped out of Wing and Deathscythe and watched as Ralph smashed his fist straight through the shack and then stop.
What had happened? He had just stopped was Taryn dead? No if she was Ralph would have exploded she must be alive but unconscious and unable to use her mind.
Duo glanced at Heero, well tried to in fact the place that Heero had been occupying was empty and said pilot had just jumped straight into the newly made hole. Duo grabbed a couple of guns out of Deathscythe and with a sigh followed him down.
She was here she had to be ... but where. Heero lightly ran down the corridor Ralph had smashed into and glanced round the corner. A dozen men were bearing down on him. He turned and ran straight into Duo who had followed him silently.
The pilots hid in the only place they could and opened the door to the refrigeration room.
Duo gagged as he entered the room. His hand rushed to cover his mouth and nose as his eyes darted around the room. The floor was covered in blood and a metal chair stood in the centre of the room.
The smell was terrible and whoever had been in that chair had suffered terribly. Footsteps stopped outside of the door and the handle began to turn. Duo turned and looked around wildly for somewhere to hide, a hand appeared and pulled him up into a small niche above the door where Heero was already crouched.
Three soldiers filed in below them but stopped just after entering. The second turned and vomited all over the floor adding to the stench and making Duo gag.
"There's no way in hell they could be in here with this smell and besides there's nowhere to hide." Remarked the first soldier.
"I agree lets get out of here." Replied the third before they pulled the second out of the door.
Duo swivelled round to Heero with his palm raised for a high five only to see an empty space and the door below being slowly opened. Duo skipped down and followed the blue-eyed pilot out of the room.

Taryn awoke. What had happened? She had been controlling Ralph then ... she had woken up. Had Ralph got here? She tried to contact him but nothing happened.
She felt someone rap on her head but it wasn't her head, she had something over her head. She slowly eased her eyes open to see him staring down at her.
He smiled and rapped again on the helmet she was wearing.
"I saw your little stunt and though I was very impressed I thought it best to stop you using it to kill me. It's a shame no one came with the gundam or you may have had a chance but now we have your gundam and you so ... you don't have a chance left." Taryns heart broke.
She was lost forever.
Tears flooded her eyes and fell down her cheeks as he left, laughing at her.
She was alone.
